When, in October 2013, the Sultan of 15 16 17 Brunei announced his intention to introduce strict Sharia into Brunei’s penal code, the 18 decision evoked a wave of criticism, in New Zealand and around the world. 19 20 21 In 2019 when the code was enacted, 22 23 New Zealand’s Minister for Foreign Aff airs Winston Peters said “it is seriously 24 25 26 27 regrettable that Brunei’s decision contravenes a number of international 28 norms on human rights”. Helen Clark joined in the condemnation: 29 30 31 32 33 34 e introduction of the new penal code is 35 36 “shocking news” and “provides for death by stoning as punishment for gay sex”. 37 38 39 40 But then she ruined it by tweeting: “Hard to comprehend what could be 41 driving such a barbaric move which stands in stark opposition to fundamental human 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 rights principles.” 51 52 53 54 No, Helen, it’s not hard to comprehend. All you need is enough spine to use the S-word, 55 56 57 58 putting it in the context of Sharia. A few days after Peters’ condemnation, 59 Green MP Golriz Ghahraman, a refugee from Iran, was asked on Twitter if she would also 60 61 62 63 64 condemn these laws. She side-stepped the 65 question by tweeting (March 30, 2019): “You realise white supremacists are 66 67 68 69 70 historically big into mass murder of the Rainbow community right? If you want 71 to associate an entire race or religion with the way extremists treat minorities you 72 73 74 75 76 would have to start with people of Western 77 78 79 European descent. Wonder why you aren’t.” As an atheist, she should have had no 80 81 problem with condemning Sharia law, but it seems that radical Islamists are culturally 82 exempt.
